This document discusses the limitations of science and the need for spirituality. It contains quotes from scientists acknowledging that science is "silent" about things that really matter like beauty, ethics, and the nature of consciousness. While science can provide factual information, it cannot explain subjective experiences. The document argues that denying consciousness still affirms its existence and that viewing humans as just chemical robots removes free will and moral responsibility. It concludes that science can improve things but spirituality is needed to improve people.

Near Death Experiences - Jacksonville 2017 by Chaitanya Charan Prabhu
Near Death Experiences - Jacksonville 2017 by Chaitanya Charan PrabhuChaitanya Charan - The Spiritual Scientist
Near-death Experiences (NDEs) involve extraordinary perceptions reported by people who were clinically dead or unconscious. NDEs have two aspects - other-worldly perceptions that are scientifically unexaminable, and this-worldly perceptions that are scientifically examinable. Cases like Pam Reynolds, who had an operation to repair an aneurysm where her body was cooled to 60 degrees Fahrenheit and her heartbeat and breathing were stopped, reported perceptions during this time that are difficult to explain by hallucination or semi-consciousness. Some scientists argue NDEs point to the possibility of consciousness existing separate from the physical brain and expanding the frontiers of science, as physics evolved by confronting evidence that couldn't be explained classMatters that matter more than matter
The document discusses several key topics regarding spirituality and a non-materialist view of the world. It questions the ability of materialism to explain origin, value, and meaning. It suggests we are eternal non-material parts of a greater whole. Our purpose is to evolve to spiritual consciousness through finding love and harmony as part of the whole. Meditation and purification can help by connecting to our unchanging core and removing mental "viruses".
Ways of knowing (Memory and Imagination)
This document discusses memory and imagination. It explores how memories are formed through sense perception, language, and emotion. Memories can be personal, shared culturally, or part of collective memory stored in oral traditions, books, archives, etc. Memory is fallible and can be affected by factors like bias, amnesia, and dementia. Imagination is described as more important than knowledge, and plays a key role in creativity, storytelling, invention, innovation, and empathy. The power of imagination is discussed in contexts of business, science, and medicine.
Tok presentation
The document discusses whether religion or science provides better guidance for determining what is right and wrong, using the example of animal cruelty. The author explores views from both perspectives on issues like animal testing, farming practices, and using animals for human gain. While science uses reasoning and evidence from animal experiments, religion generally promotes tolerance for animals. Both religion and science have roles to play, as some level of suffering may be necessary for progress, but not all predicted outcomes are unavoidable. Overall, the document examines how religion and science approach the complex issue of animal cruelty.
The book eye doctor out of the box
The document summarizes an imaginary book called "Eye Doctor Out of the Box" by Dr. Ittyerah P. Tholath. The book envisions a solution to prevent aging, senility, and death. It discusses establishing concepts about death and treating it as a medical problem rather than a spiritual event. It introduces a new concept about cancer causation and argues the focus should be modifying cancer rather than eliminating it. The book explores the role of imagination in scientific progress and examines Einstein's quote about imagination being more important than knowledge.
Walking On The Edge
1. The document discusses the relationship between reason and experiences that defy rational explanation or are "ineffable".
2. It explores the views of philosophers from Thales to Plato who saw reason as the key tool to understand the world, as well as perspectives that acknowledge experiences of awe and mystery.
3. The document examines tensions between purely rational and fundamentalist viewpoints versus allowing for mysteries that reason cannot explain through experiences of beauty, ethics, or the sublime nature of reality.
Dissertation final copy July 2016
This document is a thesis submitted by Steven Coll to the University of Glasgow investigating the effect of mortality salience on implicit nationality bias. It begins with an abstract summarizing the study, which found that reminding people of their own death (mortality salience) did not significantly impact the strength of implicit nationality bias compared to a control group. It also found no correlation between self-esteem and implicit bias strength.
The introduction discusses terror management theory, which proposes that awareness of mortality creates anxiety that humans attempt to manage through developing self-esteem and adhering to cultural worldviews. It reviews evidence that reminding people of death can elicit or intensify negative attitudes towards out-groups. However, most research measures explicit rather than implicit
Jung frankel and the 20th century psychiatry
As we are getting further from the 20th century many historical facts become clearer and clearer. Looking at the past century in perspective helps us to figure out our way forward. Jung and Frankl urged humanity to assimilate the devastation of the two World Wars by taking personal responsibility, and become aware of our projections, such as nationalism. They insist that reason is not enough to prevent future tragedies. These post-World War issues were never dealt with by humanity, just swept under the rug, as in the second half of the 20th century psychiatry identified
with psychopharmacology. Moreover, psychology's self-imposed limitation to the cognitive domain alone, neglecting the study of emotion or introspection is setting the stage for the 21st century repetition of history. The idea is that the current trajectories of both psychiatry and psychology are unsustainable as they direct us towards polarization, thus opening the way for the terrible enantiodromia. The events world-wide such as geographical fragmentation and failure of the nation states are proofs that we, humans have not dealt with our dormant demons.

Mind the mind by Chaitanya Charan Das
This document discusses how the human mind can sabotage itself through self-defeating behaviors like magnifying problems, imagining pleasures, neglecting opportunities, and denying reality. It provides examples like worrying about hypothetical problems or focusing on past pleasures instead of present opportunities. The document also presents ways to overcome these behaviors, such as meditating to gain inner calm, illuminating one's inner thoughts through spiritual wisdom, navigating inner pitfalls by journaling, and finding empowerment through spiritual community. The overall message is that the human mind can defeat itself if not properly guided, but spiritual practices can help illuminate the inner world and navigate self-sabotaging tendencies.
Are we the makers of our destiny?
This document discusses the concepts of destiny and free will. It argues that destiny determines the consequences of our actions, not our actions themselves. Destiny is defined as the aggregate reactions to our past actions delivered according to a higher plan, which includes concepts like sanchit karma, kriyaman karma, and prarabdha karma. The document acknowledges that while destiny plays a role, we can also change our destiny to some degree through our thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors. It advises focusing on what we can change rather than what we can't, and increasing the distance between what happens to us and how we respond through spirituality.

Overcoming Obstacles in Spiritual Life - Alachua 2017
Overcoming obstacles in spiritual life requires:
1. Focusing on self-improvement rather than how others see you.
2. Ensuring personal spiritual practices nourish loving exchanges with others, rather than criticizing institutions.
3. Developing tolerance for others and allowing others to tolerate differences in viewpoints.
Tap the power of your mind
The document discusses how the mind can be both empowering and disempowering depending on how it is used. It recommends checking the mind's default setting of continuous distraction, and changing one's focus from worrying about things outside of their control to focusing on things within their control. Practices like yoga and meditation can help stabilize the mind and shift one's focus to spiritual realities in order to maximize contribution to others.
Overcoming Obstacles in Spiritual Life Alachua 2017 1 & 2
This document discusses overcoming obstacles in spiritual life through wisdom and understanding the mind. It explains that the mind needs to be "broken" or re-placed, not replaced, and focuses more on selecting desires than rejecting them. Temporary things should be used to focus on the eternal. Srila Prabhupada's expertise was in motivating people according to their identities and circumstances.
Spirituality Presentation
Spirituality Growing in Christ together discusses how to build a strong relationship with God and grow spiritually as a couple. It recommends relating to God as you would another person by reading scripture daily using different exercises, talking to Him through prayer using the ACTS method, worshipping Him privately and publicly, serving Him using spiritual gifts, and engaging in additional spiritual disciplines like evangelism, stewardship, fasting, silence, journaling and learning. The document provides guidance on how couples can grow together in their faith through regularly reading the Bible, praying, worshipping, and serving God both individually and as a unit.
Spirituality
Spirituality refers to the human search for meaning and purpose through connection to something greater than oneself. It involves belief in a higher power and can provide strength, hope and meaning. Spiritual well-being is a feeling of being alive, purposeful and fulfilled through inner peace, compassion, gratitude and other qualities. Spiritual distress challenges one's beliefs and can result from medical issues, treatments, or situational factors like death or inability to practice spiritual rituals. Nursing care should consider patients' spiritual needs and practices around holy days, symbols, prayer, diet, healing, dress, birth and death.
Accounting for managers
The document discusses a case related to the Indian defense ministry. It describes how the ministry recently recalibrated its management of an account used to pay money to the US under a foreign military sales route. They found that nearly $2.3 billion had accumulated in the account without earning interest. The ministry is now using the corpus to make payments and hopes it will not need to replenish funds until the amount is depleted. This is saving the country money by avoiding additional burdens and hedging against exchange rate fluctuations. The defense minister stated the ministry has taken several measures to better manage funds and ensure savings of around 11,000 crore rupees.

Dining with a monkey by Chaitanya Charan
This document discusses the limitations of science and the need for spirituality. It makes three key points:
1) Science can describe physical phenomena and how things work, but cannot answer questions about origins, values, purpose and quality. It is limited to methodological naturalism.
2) Explanations for the origins of the universe cannot be reduced to "nothing exploded and created everything" or that "God explains the unexplainable".
3) Science cannot determine ethical values or purposes - it can describe how things are but not how they should be. Morality lies outside the realm of science. The document argues that spirituality is needed to address these limitations and make people better.

Philosophy lecture 07
The document provides an overview of key philosophical movements and thinkers during the Enlightenment period. It discusses rationalism, which held that reason is the primary source of knowledge, and empiricism, which believed knowledge comes from sensory experience. Major rationalist thinkers discussed include Descartes, Spinoza, and Leibniz. Empiricists covered include Locke, Hume, and Berkeley. Descartes used rationalism to develop his famous "I think therefore I am" argument and the mind-body dualism. Spinoza argued reality is a single unified substance with God and nature being the same. Leibniz separated truths into analytic and synthetic statements. Major empiricists rejected innate ideas and believed knowledge comes only from
SCIENTIFIC TEMPER & RELATION BETWEEN SCIENCE AND RELIGION
This document discusses the relationship between science and religion. It argues that both aim to understand the mysteries of life, though they focus on different dimensions - science focuses on physical explanations of how things work, while religion explores spiritual meanings and purposes. While conflicts have occurred when either side claims universal authority, they can also complement each other. Developing a scientific temper involves questioning beliefs and relying on facts, which could help address issues in both individuals and society. The document concludes that India can excel by promoting oneness in both religion and science.
Is Anything True Any More?
The document discusses several worldviews including naturalism, scientism, materialism, and postmodernism. It argues that these worldviews cannot adequately answer important questions about reality, morality, the purpose of life, and what happens after death. The document also discusses how Christianity and its assumptions about the universe enabled the development of modern science. It asserts that naturalism/materialism is based on circular reasoning and fails to make its adherents better people.

Humankind at a Crossroads: A Call to Action!!! PART 2
Einstein stated: “Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them.” Thus, the multi-pronged attack being waged against Humanity: GMO's, fracking, chemtrails, foreclosures, loss of pensions, HAARP, unemployment, quantitative easing, the manipulation of gold and silver prices, Libor etc. has a higher purpose. These events are tests, catalysts designed to push us out of our comfort zones and take a stand for what we believe in. We have arrived at an evolutionary critical juncture the Ancients foretold; a Crossroads where our current methods of problem-solving would be ineffective thereby forcing us to find solutions at the next level of awareness. That knowledge was destined to be revealed at this precarious point so that we had the tools to resolve the myriad challenges we are now facing and to create a promising future. The question is: Have you had enough? Are you willing to learn what lies outside your comfort zone and make a difference?
Consciousness, Transcendence and Immortality
The document discusses consciousness and where it is found. It explores perspectives from scientists, doctors, and researchers. Key points include:
1. Scientists like Stephen Hawking believe consciousness is a product of the brain, while others argue consciousness can exist independently of the brain based on near-death experiences and cases where people functioned normally with minimal brain tissue.
2. Near-death experiences often involve out of body perceptions, feelings of peace, and encounters with a light - some of which have been verified. Research like the AWARE study is investigating the validity of perceptions during near-death experiences.
3. Pim van Lommel and other researchers argue consciousness is nonlocal and not limited to the brain, which instead
Light to see the world - Science, Spirituality and Life's Big Questions
Light to see the world - Science, Spirituality and Life's Big QuestionsChaitanya Charan - The Spiritual Scientist
1. Science alone cannot explain all phenomena like free will or provide meaning, and its view is limited like a flashlight in a balloon.
2. We have a deep craving for orientation and meaning beyond just material explanations. Spirituality can provide a foundation for science by helping us expand our understanding beyond just the visible.
3. While science has changed our world, we should remain open to the possibility that spirituality is not contradictory to science but may help explain aspects like the appropriateness of mathematics to physics that science cannot.Why We and the Universe Exist
This document provides a summary of a chapter that discusses finding the "Mind of God" through understanding why humans and the universe exist. It discusses the failures of both religion and science to fully explain these questions. The author had a revelation that led them to understand the universe as a living system composed of both a living spiritual world and a material spiritual world. They propose the universe exists as two spiritual worlds that exist in two phases, a creative manifesting phase and a manifested state phase, in order to conquer time and perpetuate. This theory is said to help explain concepts in physics like the multiverse and M-theory.
The Intersection of Philosophy, Science, and Theology
This document discusses the intersection of philosophy, science, and theology. It explores how these fields investigate topics like the origin of the universe, life, and consciousness. Philosophy examines existence, science studies the natural world, and theology investigates humanity's relationship with the divine. While these fields have different approaches, they sometimes overlap on certain issues. The document also evaluates atheism and Christianity based on their internal consistency, consistency with the world, and fruits born from each system of thought.
The Intersection of philosophy, science, and theology
We compare the religions of Christianity and modern secularism -- their philosophies, science, and theologies -- in light of internal consistency, consistency with the world, and the fruit they bear.
The evidence over the last century indicates that the religion of modern secularism has been a disaster for humankind, and that Christianity is the best option if humans are to survive and thrive.
Science and spirituality
The document discusses the relationship between science and spirituality. It provides perspectives from several scientists acknowledging the limitations of science in explaining life and consciousness. Scientists described scientific inquiry as requiring faith and inspiration, with some seeing evidence of a divine guiding force. The document advocates putting life at the center and exploring its manifestations through different fields of study, with the ultimate purpose of serving a higher spiritual truth.
Science & Religion: Conflict or Conversation?
Is religion opposed to science? Has science made religion intellectually implausible? Does science rule out the existence of a “personal” God? What does "personal" mean? Does evolution do away with Divine Providence?Haven’t recent biological and neurological discoveries made illusions of the concepts of soul or spirit?
These are all questions that I've fielded from correspondents for some time. They're good questions because they call on people who hold to diverse models of the universe to do a reality check.

Love may be unscientific but is it unreal
This document discusses the relationship between love, spirituality, and science. It notes that while science seeks material explanations for phenomena, love and spirituality are not fully explained by physical or chemical processes. The document advocates that science and spirituality can be complementary, with science explaining how things work and spirituality providing purpose and meaning. It encourages readers to be open to both rational inquiry and spiritual understanding.
Reincarnation - from romance to research
The document summarizes evidence from Dr. Ian Stevenson's research on reincarnation cases, including memories of past lives and matching birthmarks. It presents the case of Necip Unlutaskiran, a boy from Turkey who remembered details of his past life in a town 80 km away, including a scar on his wife's thigh. The probability of his 6 matching birthmarks occurring by chance is 1 in 160^6. The document argues fraud is an unlikely explanation and that reincarnation provides a rational explanation for the intersection between two non-intersecting lives through the non-material soul. It suggests reincarnation could redefine our understanding of relationships and fulfillment.
Discover your inner power
This document discusses discovering one's inner power through spirituality rather than just materialism. It argues that we are not just biochemical machines but possess souls beyond our physical bodies and minds. Quotes from Einstein, King, and others support how advancing science without also strengthening spirituality can lead people astray. The document suggests practicing yoga to connect with our inner spiritual power and find companionship with the supreme power within, which can change our perceptions and perspectives for the better by complementing our talents.

Ghosts, Spirits & Reincarnation - Understanding how the invisible affects the visible by Chaitanya Charan
Reincarnation Research – Science, Pseudo-Science & Scientism
Reincarnation Research – Science, Pseudo-Science & ScientismChaitanya Charan - The Spiritual Scientist
This document summarizes evidence for past-life memories and reincarnation from cases studied by Dr. Ian Stevenson. It describes one case in India where a boy spontaneously recalled details of a past life, including being able to identify relatives. It discusses various types of evidence for past-life memories and debates around whether these could be explained by fraud or coincidence. While some question whether this is pseudoscience, others argue Stevenson collected detailed cases that cannot be ignored or fully explained by alternative theories. The document advocates an open and humble approach to expanding scientific understanding of phenomena at its fringes.Reincarnation and the human quest for self understanding
This document discusses different perspectives on the purpose of life and what happens after death. It presents evidence from scientific studies of near-death experiences and past life memories to support the theories of resurrection or reincarnation. Specific case studies are described, such as a boy in Turkey who was born with birthmarks matching the wounds of a man who died before he was born. The document considers different explanations for the unequal circumstances people are born into and suggests multi-life progression may reconcile this with God's goodness. Implications are that belief in reincarnation provides meaning and hope to suffering in this life.

World religions 1 - appreciating religious diversity amidst spiritual univers...Chaitanya Charan - The Spiritual Scientist
This document discusses appreciating religious diversity from an inclusivist perspective. It presents the view that while all religions are not the same, they share the common purpose of spiritual realization. It quotes Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura advocating developing greater attachment to one's own faith while respecting other faiths, as God can be realized through different forms. The document suggests exclusivist statements aim to inspire focus rather than impose monopoly, and pluralist statements accommodate different views, while inclusivism sees religions as different levels on one path of spiritual progress. Religions should put God first rather than existing for their own sake.World religions 2 - christianity - beyond authoritarian and humanitarian reli...
World religions 2 - christianity - beyond authoritarian and humanitarian reli...Chaitanya Charan - The Spiritual Scientist
This document provides an overview of different religious traditions including Abrahamic religions like Judaism, Christianity, and Islam which focus on historical events, and Dharmic religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism which focus on timeless principles. It discusses key figures like Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed and how they relate to the founding of major world religions. The document also touches on concepts of morality, philosophy, and the evolution of views on God, scripture, and religion over time from more authoritarian to more humanitarian perspectives.Reincarnation - myth or reality
This document summarizes Dr. Ian Stevenson's research on reincarnation and past life memories. It presents three case studies of children who exhibited memories and birthmarks correlating with deceased individuals. It considers alternatives like fraud but finds them unlikely. It discusses the implications of reincarnation, namely that it provides a rational explanation for inequality and suffering by proposing they are results of past life actions. The document suggests reincarnation offers an opportunity for spiritual growth by becoming attracted not just to other individuals but to a greater whole.
Reincarnation - reality, rationality, opportunity
This document discusses evidence for reincarnation from studies of children's past-life memories and birthmarks correlating with wounds on deceased individuals. It presents two case studies from Turkey showing strong evidence of reincarnation. It argues reincarnation provides a rational explanation for life's inequities by suggesting current circumstances are due to actions from past lives. The document also notes implications that belief in reincarnation could promote virtue and deter vice more than other religious doctrines. Overall, it aims to demonstrate the reality of reincarnation and how it can provide meaning and opportunity.
Anxiety management
This document discusses how to transform anxiety into intensity through spirituality. It suggests that worry is a self-defeating activity if unmonitored, but that spirituality can change how we perceive, process, and pursue life's challenges. Specifically, it recommends focusing on what is within our control with intensity rather than focusing on what is not within our control with anxiety. Meditation is presented as a way to stabilize and elevate consciousness.
What your phone can teach you about your mind seattle
The document discusses how examining your phone usage can provide insights into your mind and habits. It notes that the mind can be understood as software that operates both inside and outside the body. It recommends changing unhealthy "default settings" of the mind, such as corrupting thoughts, just like changing settings on your phone. While medication has its place, true mental peace comes from spiritual practices like bhakti yoga which can act as an "anti-virus" for the mind by granting higher wisdom and happiness.
Overcoming Obstacles in Spiritual Life - Alachua 2017
This document discusses overcoming obstacles in spiritual life. It advises focusing more on attachment to Krishna rather than detachment from the world. It also notes that defeat in battles with temptation does not mean defeat in the overall war for devotion. Detachment comes from devotion but one should remain softhearted, and bhakti is about relationships. Cherishing spiritual sense objects that stimulate the heart can help progress.
Overcoming Obstacles in Spiritual Life - Alachua 2017
This document discusses overcoming obstacles in spiritual life. It advises understanding ideals while accepting practical realities, and using reason to chart a course from the practical to the ideal. It also discusses focusing on central spiritual matters rather than peripheral concerns, and positioning scripture as complementary to science rather than competing with it, with the overall purpose of knowing and loving God.
Spirituality for caregivers
This document discusses how to discover your inner power and leadership abilities through spirituality and managing your consciousness. It explains that we lose power through distraction and negative thoughts, and that our existence has three levels - body, mind, and soul. While improving the body is important, corrupted software (mind) cannot be treated that way. A review of research found many health benefits from religious faith and spirituality for things like longevity, reducing risky behaviors, and well-being. True spirituality changes how we perceive, process, and pursue life's challenges for the better. Meditation helps stabilize and elevate our consciousness so we can better access our inner abilities.
Rasa lila or rash lila
The document discusses the Rasa Lila dance between Krishna and the gopis in the Bhagavata Purana. It notes that the Rasa Lila is mentioned in Canto 1 Chapter 9 Verse 40 and described further in Canto 10. It explores the paradox of the renounced Krishna engaging in romantic pastimes. It discusses different perspectives on understanding the Rasa Lila from being drama directed by Yoga Maya to being a metaphor for the relationship between the individual soul and God. It emphasizes letting reason direct emotion in spiritual life rather than being sentimental or judgmental.
Key to success - go deep
The document provides a strategy called "Go DEEP" to achieve success, where each letter represents a step: D for Desire, E for Envision, E for Endeavor, and P for Pray. It advises to develop inner desires through journaling, turn visions into action with planning but flexibility, improve one's efforts and mindset through practice, and combine hard work with spiritual guidance through prayer and meditation to maximize success which depends on both endeavor and destiny.
Proactive leadership
This document discusses proactive leadership and personal development. It emphasizes that personal leadership is the foundation for public leadership, and that everyone can work on becoming a better personal leader. It also discusses understanding one's inner landscape, with the body representing hardware, mind representing software, and soul representing the user. The document provides guidance on how to proactively change one's perceptions, thought processes, and actions by focusing on what is within one's control rather than what is not. Meditation and spirituality are presented as ways to stabilize consciousness and tap into one's abilities.
Tap the power of consciousness
This document discusses how consciousness is our most essential power and enables us to tap into our physical, electrical, and intellectual powers. It states that stray thoughts can steal our consciousness and use it against us, leaving us feeling distracted and disempowered. The document introduces concepts from the Bhagavad Gita such as the tripartite model of the self consisting of body, mind, and soul. It advocates purification through changes in how we perceive, process, and pursue things in life in order to elevate our consciousness through meditation.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Spirituality in the age of science - The hard problem of consciousness by Chaitanya Charan
- 1. Do we need spirituality in an age of science?
- 2. Multi-faceted human intelligence “All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.” - Albert Einstein
- 3. Scientism is unscientific When science claims omniscience, it becomes scientific imperialism or scientism Eg. Nothing outside the room
- 4. Science - scope focuses & limits “I am very astonished that the scientific picture of the real world around me is very deficient. It gives a lot of factual information, puts all our experience in a magnificently consistent order, but it is ghastly silent about all and sundry that is really near to our heart, that really matters to us.” - Noble Laureate Physicist Erwin Schrodinger
- 5. Science - scope focuses & limits “It cannot tell us a word about red and blue, bitter and sweet, physical pain and physical delight; it knows nothing of beautiful and ugly, good or bad, God and eternity. Science sometimes pretends to answer questions in these domains, but the answers are very often so silly that we are not inclined to take them seriously.” - Noble Laureate Physicist Erwin Schrodinger
- 6. Is that scientific? Different kinds of evidence Eg. Evidence for “What is the time?” vs “Does he /she love me?
- 7. Consciousness “Science’s biggest mystery is the nature of consciousness. It is not that we possess bad or imperfect theories of human awareness; we simply have no such theories at all. About all we know about consciousness is that it has something to do with the head, rather than the foot.” Nick Herbert, Quantum Reality: Beyond the New Physics
- 8. Does consciousness exist? No scientifically measurable proof, yet it is the basis of all measurable proofs
- 9. Consciousness doesn’t exist? Even the denial of consciousness is an affirmation of consciousness
- 10. Einstein’s dilemma If we are just chemical robots, then we have no free will. Then Nazis aren’t responsible for the Holocaust
- 11. “I love you” I & you – biological robots Love – Surge of chemicals in cranial cavity
- 12. Who is the inner activator? “The brain is a computer . . . But it is programmed by something that is outside itself.” - Wilder Penfield The Mystery of the Mind,
- 13. The non-material source of consciousness We are not programmed machines; we are the owners of programmable machines
- 14. Science-spirituality harmony Science can make things better; spirituality can make people better
